This paper updates the results of the clinical trial to examine the efficacy of exogenous
leukocyte interferon therapy as adjuvant treatment for osteosarcoma. So far the incidence of
metastases is lower and the survival rate is better for the interfer-on-treated group than for
the concurrent control group. The number of treated patients is too small at present to allow
proper statistical calculations to be made.
